hi see link below it may be of help i have built a 145mhz duplexer and used the loop and cap that i can rotate 2 cans give me 70+db I used cable lengths below rg223 1) what should be my cable lengths between cans.= 1/4 WAVE APPROX 34CM FOR 145MHZ > > 2) what should my cable length between the cans and the antenna tee? = 1/4 WAVE APPROX 34CM FOR 145MHZ
